If you are a couple of weeks away you have time to learn the basics. You don't want to find yourself post-op and relying on someone else to cook for you. If you are truly going to be the master of your destiny, you need this vital skill. Most importantly, learn how to cook healthy. There are tons of cooking classes and tons of free videos online about how to cook healthy. Cooking is easy and its fun, especially when you are cooking to make yourself healthy.
